Jayapura, Jubi – Papua Transportation Office said it remained optimistic it would realize airport construction projects in the province.

About the construction, said Djuli, the provincial transportation office is currently reviewing the contract, including the airport construction in Mamit, in Sugapa and some other regions. “We have checked the airports along with our staffs and consultants including those from PPTK,” he said.

According to him, he has reviewed the contract document and ready to sign it, then the construction process could be run, and we are very optimistic that it could be completed. “The contract document has been on my table, after the signing, the construction could be done,” he said.

Earlier, Papua Governor Lukas Enembe has launched new passenger terminal building and airport apron in Oksibil Airport, Pegunungan Bintang Regency some times ago.

“We hope the new terminal building and apron in Oksibil Airport could be used and benefited by people,” said Enembe.

Meanwhile, the Head of Oksibil Airport Frits J. Ayomi said new passenger terminal building and airport apron in Oksibil Airport were built using the Regional Budget of Pegunungan Bintang Regency. “The governor only launched the building, while the operation would be implemented in 2018,” said Ayomi.

Merauke, Jubi – The Philippines Airlines will be allowed to transit at Mopah Airport for fuel replenishment, but not fly to Papua as a destination, former Merauke Regent Romanus Mbaraka told Jubi on Thursday (16/06/2016).

“I want to tell you the truth about communication with the Indonesian Minister of Transportation. That’s right we wanted some opportunities that the international flights could be stopped at Mopah Airport,” he said.

Apparently, further said Mbaraka, the flight of Philippines Airlines plans to pass Merauke after flying from Manila. However, flying from Manila with full tank, it should reduce the number of passengers and cargo because it’s distant flight.

But there is other strategy, which is flying from Manila with half-full tank by transporting the passengers and cargo but transit in Mopah Airport for fuel replenishment.

“Yes, that’s the strategy I talked to the minister and got a good response. So, it’s not the Philippines Airlines taking the route of domestic flights in Mopah Airport and making it as their destination,” he said.

Meanwhile, one of customary landowner Hendrikus Hengky Ndiken while disband the activities at Mopah Airport some times ago during the socialization phase 1 about the construction of airport’s terminal.
